AMS HFC question...

Will the stock IX O2 sensor fit the bung in the AMS cat back? I'm assuming that's what you have to do when running the AMS high flow cat, correct?

What kind of gains can be expected with the stock down pipe & the HFC?
Will the HFC increase the exhaust note over the stock cat?

Thanks guys.

Finally, a response - wOOt!

So is that a 'yes' the IX's 02 sensor will fit the AMS cat back? Or was it a 'yes', there is more noise with the AMS HFC vs the stock cat?

I'm really like how much quieter my cat back system is than my old TBE. I'm not ready to go with the down pipe yet.

Woops, it's not in the title though but it's in the first sentence...my bad, I skimmed thru it...so don't be a d#%k about it, hehehe...

Anyway how does it sound with stock dp and cat? It's pretty loud right? I think the DP and HFC will definitely make it a little louder.

well you can only run the HFC if you run our Downpipe also. The AMS HFC will not bolt to a stock downpipe. The down pipe and cat will make it a little louder but not much. Its a pretty tame system.
